Beating The Blues

It has been so dreary out, I can't find a job that will pay my bills, and I don't get to see Nathan much anymore since he's working.

I pretty much slept all day.  I hunted for jobs last night, but wasn't able to find anything I'm qualified for.  I'm pretty sure I'm going to end up working at McDonald's or Casey's.
Around 5 I decided I was being stupid and popped in one of the workout DVD's that Tyne gave me.  It uses weights (resistance band and free) and there's like, a million different workouts in there.  I think there's 8 DVD's or something.
So I did the first one.  I feel pretty good now.  I'll probably cook some salmon and have a protein shake.

I took the workout nice and easy, since the doctor told me not to do anything extreme and avoid high impact stuff.  This has always been an issue for me.  I try to keep up with everyone else and end up getting hurt.  It's like I panic and think that pacing myself won't give me any results.  Then I end up with rolled ankles, bruised knees, and a spasming back.  I did it during water aerobics, during Farrell's, and my brief stint with yoga.  So bully for me.

I really hope I can find a job soon.  I don't do well when I'm bored.

  1. Awwwh. =( I will be home to keep you company on Wednesday and Thursday!!!

    Sometime when I can get a guest pass for my gym you can come use it with me. They have all kkinda of aerobic equipment and such. Other than that, you're always free to come to Mike's to hang out and watch TV and stuff. Watching Arwen torture D'Artagnan is cheap entertainment too, LOL.

  3. Or, take a drive to Minnesota some day - its just a 4 hr drive to Lakedale, and surprise me and Lisa!!! :D Wouldn't that be FUN?? I'd even take you out to lunch; there's a subway just about walking distance from there. Consider it, anyway. Especially if you don't mind driving and kinda like road trips :)
    Miss you Tiff.
